Unbeknown to these clients all the processing work was sent to India for processing! It returned to the UK 5% of which were checked the remainder just sent to the client by the admin team.

Tax Returns require a whole host of information which could provide a would be fraudster with 99% of the information they require,National Insurance numbers, addresses, date of births, bank account numbers etc etc.

I think it should be a legal obligation that Accountancy/Tax practices whether affiliated or not should have to tell their clients if they use such methods as outsourcing.

Also should those using such a raft of personal information be CRB checked?
